I just moved into a new apartment. I needed a rug for my media room. It had to be durable, great looking, and reasonably priced. This rug fit the bill. I wasn't sure about the color, but once it was down on the floor, its just great! Its not shedding a lot either!

Super thick and super soft. There is A LOT of gray in the rug and combined with the gold/marine blue/burgundy it is really versatile. I don't notice the shedding like the other reviewers and it was laying flat within 24 hours of being unrolled.

The photograph shows this to be a warm bright gold and when laid on a wood floor it comes off as a grey-green. Photography is everything when doing business on net. I've bought other rugs rom overstock that were just as represented. So my complaint is that this image wasted a lot of peoples' time.

I scored this rug on a huge sale from the online retailer that offers prime on 12/27/12. I'll summerize my review here: The colors (blue, red, and yellows) aren't as vibrant as I'd hoped but overall it's a dense and soft rug for the money so I can't complain. But I can't use it where I had planned because of the colors. I'll try to describe the colors as accurate as possible. To start, the colors are not "vibrant" per say - they are not "bright". They are muted, dusty and pale. That description isn't very flattering but the rug is pretty. It looks best in a room that gets plenty of light so the colors stand out-- the colors definitely pop up against each other. They are well "defined" but the shades themselves are tertiary colors. For example the very outer edge (and general background color of the rug) is a brown beige-green like the color of wet sand. The blue band around the border of the rug is a powder dodger blue. There are some shades of lavender-violet, sage-green, copper-brown, and grey in the medallion design. The red you see is a wine-red / burgundy (not a bright cranberry red which is what I myself expected) and the yellow is a pretty Dijon mustard yellow (probably the brightest color in the rug, and my favorite). I would buy this rug again. It's still soft, hides dirt/dust and cat hair well enough that I don't need to vacuum every day, and it stopped shedding a long time ago. Colors are so hard to describe which is why I think Overstock should allow user photos -- but I hope this helps!

Due to the reviews about the color I struggled for a couple weeks on whether to order this rug. But I fell in love with the pattern, the size was right, and the price amazing for a wool rug. Finally placed the order and I'm so happy I did. Even though the Gombad pattern is traditional, the unique color combinations within the pattern give it a more transitional look. The main background color is a complex tan/green.. The second major color is the blue/gray. Within the pattern are various shades of green, all subdued with the exception of a small amount of citron; a red/brown (not bright); neutral tan; even a very small amount of blue/violet. Even though there are various colors, the rug is subtle and rich in tone. Beautiful with my neutral furnishings and lots of options for accent colors. Prettier in person!

for the $$$, you cannot beat the value - granted I just unrolled it today and cannot speak to the long term durability of the product but it seems to be a very well constructed rug. as I mentioned above the color of the rug was more of a subdued blue/green than brown as the picture suggests so be slightly open to variations in color (from that of the online picture). The shipping was fantastic - I ordered this rug at 11:30 PM on Wednesday night and it got here on Friday afternoon. Overstock is on top of their ****. Great Price, Great shipping, Great product.

We've been searching for a rug for out family room and thought this would work. We received the rug two days after ordering it and when we opening we were beyond pleased! The rug is a lot richer in color than it appeared on the computer. There is a lot more blue/gray in the rug than we thought, but we still love it! It's perfect for the room.

This rug arrived within a few weeks and all I can say is that it was beyond my expectations. The colors are desgines of muted blue-gray, brick-red, light-brown, seafoam-green, and light-gray, all set on a sandy-taupe background. The blue-gray centered sun design helps to break up the right-angles of any room while the softness of the color palate works to create a foundation for multiple design schemes. I chose to paint my room the same color as the rug background and use red and gray accents. I can see endless possibilites with this rug and the quality is easily 4 times what I have paid.
The only caution is to exect shedding for the first few months. I had to vacuum every other day for the first month, but it has been about 2 months and it's stopped now. The rug is very soft and thick but I would still recommend a rug pad if you are using on a wood/tile surface.

Arrived in timely manner and when I unrolled it I knew I had picked the right area rug.
Muted tones of slate blue and gold. Thick pile and sheds very little if at all.
I have it down on wood floor and it does not require the anti slip matt but I will
put one under it, to protect the floor. So happy I ordered this after reading all the reviews, felt
very confident it would be as stated, and it is!

Hello uptowngurl, we try to represent the colors of our products accurately. Unfortunately, due to the difference in monitor colors we cannot guarantee that the color will match exactly what you see on your screen. The Primary color of Gold with Secondary colors of : Blue,(blue.grey) rust, ivory, green is a pretty good representation. All the colors together can give it a different hue, but is neutral enough to go with many colors. The second image gives a good color comparison. We hope this helps. Thank you for shopping with us.

Based on the reviews of the color issues, I was wondering if the colors are this? http://www.overstock.com/Home-Garden/Handmade-Medallion-Light-Brown-Grey-Wool-Rug-76-x-96/6287468/product.html
If so, why wouldn't the photo be changed to match the actual product? I would have bought this rug, but hesitate due to the reviews about the colors not being represented properly in the image.

Hello a2michiganshopper, the rug that you are referencing in your question is a completely different rug from Safavieh, with model number: HG914A-8, with a primary color of brown. Though the patterns are similar along with the pile height of .50. This rug's primary color is gold, with a model number of: SHT12GD. I hope this information is helpful. Thank you for shopping with us. Rochelle B

We bought 2 of these; they are beautiful. I do feel the color appears different than photos. When I look at it in our home, gold does not appear to be primary color. I think the difference may be looking straight down on it as in pictures and looking as you walk toward it. Having said this, we love them. They are excellent quality and blend nicely with our colors. We have already had company mistake the rugs for much more expensive ones.

How many returns do you get from the wool rugs made in India, or how many complaints? I cannot seem to find a wool rug from there that does not shed horribly from just walking on it. Are they dry rotted?

Hi, chumley11. The customer reviews on this page are a great resource to see our customer satisfaction on this product. It is common for new wool rugs to shed, particularly when they have been hand-tufted. I hope this helps. Feel free to contact us with any further questions and have a great day.

I'd love to purchase this rug when it's back in stock but I'm wondering if I could get an exact measurement for the 7'6" side.....the area I want to put it is slightly smaller than that (7'5.5") and I'm wondering if it's a little smaller, because maybe it would fit : ) Thank you for your help!
